Back then, sooo long ago - did it all - the birth 
Today, our children 2 years and 2 months old and always at the same time of the year, from the birthday of the triplets in March, I think back to how it was before 1 year, 2 years ago ...?
As our three children were born, began on a terribly difficult fight in his life.
Of all the complications that can bring a premature baby with him, we did not know what came toward our little preemies. I think there all healthy, they breathe independently, everything is laid out properly, will work as her immune system? Questions, questions. Fears and hopes. Expectant thought and skepticism.
*** I have to say that I had prior to the planned Caesarean section a little scared. Where my biggest worry probably lay in setting the PDA. If there should something go wrong, I could not even feed themselves, perhaps after my children. But I'm fortunately more of an optimist. And so I had confidence in the abilities of doctors, nurses, midwives and especially our children! *** The
Kaiserschneitt was of course carefully planned to the smallest detail. For each child, a team was ready, that a neonatologist and a midwife and nurses involved. Everyone knew exactly what he had to do. Preparations for the cesarean section I found exciting. After weeks of protection and peace was finally something to let me go. I got to see so many people, how long gone, except that I finally saw something different from my room when I was down in the delivery room.

got the OP then I very quickly put the PDA. She was uncomfortable but over quickly and they looked fast. Soon my legs were no longer "me".
My husband, at that time my partner and our son of course great too. The father was allowed to be present at birth. For the big brother, however, were the doctors have no place in Kreisaal. Of course that was better that way because, apart from the many people in this small space would be the sight of the much blood on him was not so nice. Here I would mention that I felt at times as if I were on a slaughter, it was shaken me.
So, our great people waiting outside. Because I insisted that his three sisters once a tiny face was when she left the Kreissall and would be brought to the neonatal unit. Up there it was for him that is again "No Zurtritt for children!"
I found this first acquaintance with the 4 siblings immediately after birth is very important. I thought it should be understood better for Johnny, why he had to give up as long as weeks on the mother. It was just his right to see her as soon as possible. He must have already got so much back.

So, now back again for caesarean section.
My husband came in Op clothing to me and held my hand like a strong, all the time! He has given me a lot of power with his presence.
I asked the doctor I did not say when he cuts, I thought, of course, just then I would notice it and maybe pass out. And I did not want to miss this moment. The doctor just said "So now we have arrived in the three-room apartment." And already heard the first cry - goosebumps! Man held I then smeared a tiny shriveled and child's face. It was of course all too late. The tears flowed over great luck.
Lilly was born and gone again. Into the hands of the Neonatolgen team. I heard screaming next door, but I trusted indeed.
Even before I could make great ideas I saw in the face of our second triplet. Mattis had just arrived and greeted us as well, with a life full cry.
And already he was gone. And finally we got to see Lina. They also called us too and immediately fell forward to the big difference to the voices of her two siblings, who sharply today is.
as if to say, as it is knit, she let me like her tiny feet in the face. Even today it is a real whirlwind and bounces like a rubber ball through the house.

Now there were all born three children, my stomach was empty! But now the
was everything. The arduous, week-enel anges lying, isolation from the rest of the family. Within three minutes I have cut my three little worms from the gut.
I had been busy, I had long enough time. And yet. The experience of a normal birth, of which one is deprived in a cesarean section is forever like a hole be there. But the experience of such a difficult birth and the first hours after birth is just as valuable treasure. And will be lashed in place in our hearts.
***
While I was treated, what is really so routine for the doctors, it was right next door round. The Investigating and supplying the children was exciting. My husband did not know in which child and it should be. Those who needed more assistance, who it went bad, who good. What he could do to make a first contact? He was allowed to touch
. Being there for our children. You can hear his familiar voice. Careful that no one was confused and ensure that the sweet Johnny in the hall and could see really. The incubators had to stop short and my husband began high Johnny.
Now it was ok for our great son. Now was the day to go further. So he is!
***
I took a long time for me to recover from the cut. I was in pain and I was missing muscles. I had lost a large part during the long bed rest, despite continuous exercises.
But I wanted to see my kids of course, as soon as möcglich. And so my husband drove me on the evening of the baby up to the station and there they were. Tiny little people, the average brought all just 1.5 kg on the scale and about 40 cm tall were.
Mattis had the same mechanical ventilation for a few hours after birth. That would be typical for boys, the weaker sex dependent.
But now all three were stable and recovering from the rigors of birth.
***
on the images you see here, our children are usually a bit older. Except on the first, where you can still see very well, as they lack the subcutaneous fat tissue and therefore they look almost senile. Many lines and the small veins shone through the thin skin. The palpebral fissures were small by the large dark pupils filled out completely so that it is a little looked funny when they opened their eyes. My husband pointed carefully once a joke because of "Alien" to. He did not finish, because my look says it all. The bones were everywhere will produce clear and there was a total picture of a cute little baby, caress like the one in the arm and the old.
But there are now even our children and they were wonderful!
